In today's podcast episode, I'm talking about egg and sperm quality. The topic was introduced in a recent Ask The Egg Whisperer session by Nicky who asked, "Are there any supplements or treatments you can recommend for helping Day 3 embryos reach blastocyst?"

And to answer this, I want to share about a mnemonic, called AGE.

Embryos, or blastocysts have everything to do with your

Age

Genetics

Environment

Of course, you can't control how old you are, nor can you control the genetics you were born with, or that your partner was born with.

However, if you have the ability to freeze eggs, sperm, or embryos, then you can preserve your fertility by doing so. And, you can control your environment by sleeping well, exercising, most days of the week, having a diet rich in antioxidants and following an anti-inflammatory type diet, avoiding the environmental toxins.
